Yarn: Bernat softee chunky in green and blue - part of leftover skeins I had.

Notes: This is a tad big for seamonkey, but it's thick and warm, and as you can see he doesn't mind wearing it. It was the first time I did intarsia in my life - it wasn't too bad. I actually was able to carry each color in each hand, which was a little fiddly at first. Tension is key, and I need some practice, especially where I was switching needles (I used the magic loop method).

Currently on the needles I have the Chevron Scarf from Last Minute Knitted gifts. You take two skeins of luxury sock yarn in complimentary colors, and switch off every two rows. One row is worked in the "feather and fan" pattern. I did a double repeat to make this wider. I had alot of fun choosing which colors to use - I was in the yarn shop for almost an hour digging through all the wonderful sock yarn. I settled on Cherry Tree Hill Supersock, both are in colors "Earth" - and I found out later that these are "potluck" skeins - they only dyed six of each color at a time. This scarf is a gift for my Billy Joel loving friend for her 40th birthday - obviously I'm late with it - and it's taking longer than I thought. But the colors are totally her - rusty, brown, coppery, peachy...it will look great with her skin tone. I'm not even half way done - but this scarf is over 6 feet long. I want to make myself one eventually, it's a great excuse to splurge on sock yarn.

Dude, I am lovin' that hat! Seamonkey is such a little hat wearer. Truly, he looks good in everything, even if it's too big for him! Eamon looks like a dork in hats (his big ears get in the way), yet I knit them for him anyway.

I love doing intarsia. Did you have fun with it? I do the same thing - hold one color in my right hand, and one in my left. Then I switch between Continental and English style knitting. The tension can be tricky though.

I absolutely love the booties and the hat! And Seamonkey is so handsome!!! It's amazing how much he's grown. He's still just as cute as ever.

Your Chevron is really pretty. I like how the cream colored yarn looks more of a semi solid color. I'm sure your friend is going to be thrilled with it. When you finish. Because it is freakin' long. LOL

How marvelous that he loves wearing his mama's knitting. Will he be the (handsomer) Ron Weasley at school when he grows up, with his mom's knitting adorning his body all the time?You are really talented!
